Game crashes while loading older mission

[NdrSiege]

I'm trying to fly Megagoth1702's Angels in the Dark mission, but upon starting the mission, it hangs on the loading screen for a moment and crashes (DCS has stopped working). I've mentioned this exact mission at other community boards and at least two others have tried this particular mission with no luck (single player and coop). I understand this mission was made on DCS A-10C, before DCS World. However I have flown this mission on DCS World, on 22 April this year, 8 days before patch 1.2.4. I have tried opening the mission in the mission editor and resaving it under a different name to no avail. I'm at a loss.

 

My System Specs:

 

Intel i5-3570K @ 3.4 GHz (no overclock)

16 GB DDR3

GeForce GTX 780 (updated driver to latest version today)

Windows 8.1 64-bit

Fixed.

 

Thank you Grimes:

 

Somehow a waypoint task "no Action" was saved into the mission file. Thus upon load the mission crashed. Going to report it to the devs.

How to fix it.

Load mission, open up group/unit selection menu. Its thetriangle, diamond, square icon near the bottom of the left tool bar.

Find the group "pilot armor 2".

Iterate the groups waypoint to WP 1, note the "No Action" task. Now iterate to another WP and then back to WP. The task should be gone. This is the editor "cleaning" invalid tasks. Save the mission and it should load.
